I haven't played this game, and I don't want any spoilers; I'm mainly asking about gameplay. What I mean is: most games like this (Final Fantasy, Wild Arms, etc.) have sequels, but they're entirely different stories with different characters. I've always assumed that this is because in an RPG, you gain experience and abilities, and it would be strange and jarring to start the next game in a different situation than you were in when the previous one ended - that is assuming the story picks up where it left off. You wouldn't want to gain a bunch of experience levels and start over at level 1, would you?
So my question is: it seems like this series has a very continuous story, but how do they deal with this problem from one game to the next?
